Archery Range

Our MWR Archery Range is located on USS Intrepid Road just next to the Catch and Release Ponds. Archery Safety Cards can be obtained from the Fitness Center and are required for all personnel using the range. After reading a quick set of rules, a test consisting of 15 questions is administered.
